A two-car collision sent an SUV careening into a gas station, where it slammed into a gas pump causing a fire on Monday.

According to police, a 60-year-old ride-sharing driver in a Nissan Xterra, who had a 40-year-old woman passenger at the time, struck a Honda Accord, causing the Honda to slide sideways into a tree, slicing the car in half.

The Nissan continued for two blocks, eventually slamming into the gas station.
